About Me

I'm an open person, who is friendly and helpful. Usually I'm calm, but if get to know me better you would see that I can also be very funny and active.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get in contact with new people, locals in travelling areas. Finding new experiences and friends.

Interests

I like to see the nature. I love animals and want to know more about the different species on this planet. Observing animals in the wild and in intact ecosystems, that's one of the main motivation for me traveling around.
I like to do sports like volley ball, cycling, badminton or slacklining and I played soccer for 17 years.
I love my friends and like it to hang out with them. I'm always trying to meet new people and increase my cycle of friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2012 I was travelling around South America (Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Bolivia) for three months. It was the best travel experience I ever had.
I have also been to Australia with a friend and we worked there for volunteering organisations. We saw many different places and were looking for wild nature.
I did a 4 days trip around Budapest with my girlfriend. We had a really great time visting the sights especially the Zoo.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Experiences from journeys I made before. Stories of nature and of my work in a national park. I'm also a quiet and patient listener if necessary.
